Springer

Springer spent much of the war with the Decepticons going it alone, making friends along the way but, never staying in one place for any extended period of time. As word of the defeat of the Decepticons on Klo made its way throughout the galaxy, Springer was a bit disappointed when he thought that there would no longer be a war to fight. When he was approached by Grimlock to join the crew he was leading to hunt down Bludgeon and his army, Springer jumped at the opportunity. Serving as GrimlockÂ¡Ã‡s Security Chief, Springer is one Autobot that the Decepticons usually think twice about crossing.

Abilities: When the time came for Springer to upgrade his systems, he chose to focus his energies on two forms instead of three. His new vehicle mode is a heavily armored Armored Personell Carrier. His outer armor is composed of a duranium based alloy that is resistant to most conventional firepower. His automatic guns fire super heated bullets at a rate of 1000 rounds per minute. He carries external tanks with reserve energy for soldiers on the battlefield. His top speed is 350mph. Despite no longer having an aerial mode, Springer has not sacrificed his ability of flight. Booster packs on his back allow him to fly in robot mode. His legs have anti-gravity boosters in them that allow himt o jump in a pogo like motion over long distances. His new robot form has six missile pods built into it. Each pod can be programmed to lock onto a different target within seconds. His Energon edged blade can be mounted on his forearm or held in his hand.

Weaknesses: Springer is constantly having adjustments made to his new body to maximize his battle efficiency. This sometimes causes unexpected malfunctions.
